​Originally I am from Hamburg (Germany), where I also did my PhD in mathematics at the University of Hamburg under the supervision of Ulf Kü​hn. After this I was a JSPS Postdoctoral fellow at Nagoya University working with Hidekazu Furusho and from April 2017 to February 2018 I was a guest at the Max-Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn.

I am interested in various aspects of multiple zeta values, their q-analogues and their connections to modular forms.
